* Ridley from ''VideoGame/RadiataStories'' is type 2: A snobby BlueBlood knight, who is followed on her missions by other knights to make sure she doesn't get hurt. After a key event, she mellows into the first type; polite and sweet VIP among her new allies, with an IdiotHero declaring his life's mission is porotecting her.

In [[UsefulNotes/JapaneseLanguage the original Japanese]], expect all types of ojou to use the more formal [[JapanesePronouns first-person pronoun]] "''watakushi''" rather than the more casual (and [[UsefulNotes/GenderAndJapaneseLanguage feminine-only]]) "''atashi''," and to make heavy use of the "''wa''" feminine emphasis particle at the end of their sentences.

[[folder:Comic Book]]* ''ComicBook/AlbedoErmaFelnaEDF'' had many of them of both genders, including the titular protagonist. This is quite justified because, while being an American comic, the storytelling is [[{{Animesque}} definitely not]]:** As mentioned previously, the titular Erma Felna is basically a military version of this trope. She is a descendant of a prestigious family of soldiers that dates back centuries, and her personality usually gives that vibe, not to mention that, in times of peace, she is usually a very educated and formal woman, albeit, when she was a child, she was a RoyalBrat, especially towards her younger brother. On the other hand, she could be a deconstruction of this, as she could be quite mercurial, vindictive at times, and prone to explosive outburst, not to mention she doesn't receive any kind of special privileges for being one, not that she cares of this anyways. Heck, she is even addressed with the [[TranslationConvention in-universe term]] of ''ojou-sama'' by the resident MasterComputer, The Net.** Her mother Eda is a much classical ojou than her own daughter, albeit this is very most justified, as she is an ActualPacifist with a utter hatred for war. She even sits in [[SeizaSquirm seiza pose]] for drinking tea.** Teka Ardehad is also another classical example of an ojou. In this case this is even more justified because she hails from a royal family and also because [[spoiler:she is a clone from Erma]].[[/folder]]
